The worst film ever made?

Feast your eyes upon the Baldwin-starring horror which is - dum-dum-dum - SHARK IN VENICE!

I would certainly pay $12-$18 to see this film in a cinema. That's probably not a surprise to anyone.

I doubt it'll reach any cinemas in Melbourne, of course.

Ha! I love that it was my old housemate Born Dancin' who commented that he'd pay to watch this film - because I was going to say the exact same thing! I almost refuse to believe that something so awesomely shithouse can exist. It delights me.

So if I can track down a copy on Amazon, are we all brave enough to watch it together? I mean god, this trailer makes the Halle Berry Catwoman movie look like high art!

Have you two seen Catwoman by the way? Defintely one of those 'so bad it must be watched with friends to appreciate just how awesomely crap it is' kind of films...

I haven't seen Catwoman, no! Sounds like we've got a movie night ahead of us. I am absolutely up for it.

Doing the Beats: Kerouac, sexuality and On the Road

Image
The long-awaited film adaptation of Jack Kerouac’s ground-breaking novel presents the perfect opportunity to re-examine the lives of the Beat Generation, writes Richard Watts. It’s not hyperbole to say that the Beat Generation – a small coterie of writers who met up in New York City in the spring of 1944 – changed the world. Without their individual quests for personal freedoms – a quest for sex and drugs before there was rock and roll; a quest which spawned the western world’s first counter-culture, the beatniks – the hippy movement of the Sixties would never have happened, and punk would have been a quiet snarl rather than a global reaction. Of all the Beat Generation writers, Jack Kerouac, author of the autobiographical beatnik bible, On the Road , is unequivocally the most famous. Born in Lowell, Massachusetts in 1922, to working class French-Canadian parents, Kerouac aspired to be a writer from a young age, though he was also a keen football player. Indeed, it ...

The Hard Life of an Absintheur

Finished work last night and went out for a quick Vietnamese meal in the city before embarking on a brief absinthe tour of two Melbourne bars, The Toff in Town and Cookie , which helpfully are in the same building as one another. (As an aside, the links above are to Age reviews of the bars; and really, they should take their photos at night, as the daylight photos on the paper's website are utterly lacking in atmosphere). The Toff had a very limited range of brands on offer; only four, one of which was the utterly vile Green Fairy brand, which all good absintheurs should avoid like the plague. The brand I eventually chose, which I hadn't tried before, was Jacques Senaux Blue , from Spain (80% proof). Because I always drink my absinthe with sugar and water in the traditional fashion (although most places insist on setting the sugar alight, which is flamboyant, whereas actually the water should be slowly dripped onto the sugar until it dissolves - incidentally, the only plac...
